I found this '55 for Dad a few years ago. It was a 265 powerglide car. He has had several in his lifetime and wanted one last car to fix and drive. We were going to build it together. His health has gone down and he's not able to work anymore and decided to sell the car. I told him that I wanted it, so he gave it to me. I would love to get it together in time for him to drive it, but I don't know if that will happen. He wanted a 327 in it, so I built a nice mild one to go in it, along with the M20 that I built for my Camaro many years ago. I'm narrowing an Impala 12 bolt for it with 3.55 gears. The frame is finished and new floor is installed. I just have to finish my shop so I can get the car done.
